How to install TexStudio on Ubuntu 16.04?

I found this page which suggests to install TexStudio with the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install texstudio
Is it enough? Don't I need a package manager like MiKTeX in Windows?
Thanks,

When I installed Texmaker then that was all I needed to do. Any dependencies should be automatically installed when you use apt-get. I remember being surprised how much more work I had to do to install it on Windows.

You're right, when I tried the second command, it told me it needed 610MB disk space, so yes, it installs all the dependencies with it apparently.

Though one can installtexstudioalone, it will be pretty useless because one can't compile real latex documents with it; instead of installingtexlive-fullone can installtexliveand additional packages, such astexlive-latex-extra(given one knows what he needs).

Texstudio is merely an IDE.
To get the full advantage of installing latex, you will have to use the command:
sudo apt install texlive-full // for ubuntu 16.04 and above
However, the above command can most often be a temptation. It installs so many extra (language) packages, most of which will be unnessary for your purpose. Therefore, it is recommended to use the command without the "full":

BRIEF
I've seen 2 types of answers here. Both answers are actually OK. You could just do as you say or install first texlive-full.
- Option 1:
sudo apt-get install texstudiowill have texstudio using
texlive-base. - Option 2:
sudo apt install texlive-base+sudo apt-get install texstudiowill have texstudio usingtexlive-full
Both will have texstudio up and running and for most cases, the first option will be enough to compile. Option 2 will install every package so you'll never have to install any extra package when compiling.
I guess if you don't have space issues the second option is better. However, I am using Ubuntu on a live persistent USB drive without much space so I go for option 1.
You could check packages differences running apt-cache search texlive (you'll see that there are actually more than 2 options).

+1. Funny, this is actually the only correct answer and it was downvoted :). Though one can installtexstudioalone, it will be pretty useless because one can't compile real latex documents with it; instead of installingtexlive-fullone can installtexliveand additional packages, such astexlive-latex-extra(given one knows what he needs).

BRIEF
I've seen 2 types of answers here. Both answers are actually OK. You could just do as you say or install first texlive-full.
- Option 1:
sudo apt-get install texstudiowill have texstudio using
texlive-base. - Option 2:
sudo apt install texlive-base+sudo apt-get install texstudiowill have texstudio usingtexlive-full
Both will have texstudio up and running and for most cases, the first option will be enough to compile. Option 2 will install every package so you'll never have to install any extra package when compiling.
I guess if you don't have space issues the second option is better. However, I am using Ubuntu on a live persistent USB drive without much space so I go for option 1.
You could check packages differences running apt-cache search texlive (you'll see that there are actually more than 2 options).
